Answer 2

Answer:

The products of the given reaction are $C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}Br$ and $H_{2}O$.

Displacement Reaction:

• A reaction in which an atom or set of atoms is replaced by another atom or set of atoms is called a displacement reaction.
• It is also called a replacement reaction.
• A double displacement reaction is one where the negative ions of the reactants exchange places and form new compounds.
• The general reaction of a double displacement reaction is as follows: AB + CD → AD + CB
• In the given reaction, the reactants are $C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}OH$ and $HBr$. The negative ions are $OH^{-}$ and $Br^{-}$.
• The negative ions interchange their positions to form two new compounds $C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}Br$ and $H_{2}O$.
• $C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}Br$ is called benzyl bromide.

Therefore, the complete chemical reaction is as follows:

$C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}OH + HBr$ → $C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}Br + H_{2}O$
